CSS3 word-break

Last updated on : 2023-03-20

Note:

CSS3 word-break shows a browser compatibility score of 100. This is a collective score out of 100 to represent browser support of a web technology. The higher this score is, the greater is the browser compatibility. The browser compatibility score is not a 100% reflection for every browser and the web technology support. However, it does give you an estimate on how much you should rely on a particular web technology in terms of browser compatibility.

Overview

The word-break property can be used to prevent words in a multi-line element from being broken over multiple lines between particular letters. This can be useful to improve readability.
